Chapter 358: Solicitation
Unlike the increasingly tense atmosphere of Richard's laboratory, the atmosphere of Sinovel laboratory is becoming more and more relaxed, especially near the holiday and the Chinese New Year, except for the time-tested veteran Huang Mao, interns including Wang Ying and Zhao Pingchuan and others are a little absent-minded. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
However, Yang Rui did not urge everyone this time, the first stage of the experiment was completed, and it should make everyone relaxed, and besides, the first stage of work is to induce the potassium channel gene defective fruit flies, and on this basis to explore this method, this stage is the simplest and most intense, and then the second stage is to lock the cloned gene, and then analyze the molecular mechanism, it is not a work that can be completed in a month or two months, it requires continuous trial and error, and the Chinese New Year is approaching, but there is no need to rush for a while.
Of course, what reassured Yang Rui even more was the publication of the paper on "JMC". With this article, all papers and experiments that use the method of cloning mutant genes to explore the function of ion channels have to cite his articles, so Yang Rui does not need to be too anxious for the next experiments, but should prepare carefully and write a heavyweight paper to stabilize the foundation.
This is the main means to prove one's strength after being innovative.
The publication of this paper is equivalent to a way for related research, anyone can explore and study the function of ion channels on the basis of Yang Rui's paper, and Yang Rui's competitors are equivalent to more.
This is also the disadvantage of publishing papers in stages. If Yang Rui makes the whole experiment and then publishes the paper, then the early citations and later citations are likely to add up to a three-digit citation, which is a super large scale in the academic world.
But he can't do it if he doesn't, the competition in the academic world is more and more, more and more extensive, no one can rely on a creative idea to eat, the actual work and pay, the same.
From Yang Rui's point of view, as long as he can publish heavyweight papers in the second stage, the total number of citations of the two papers may increase, and the value to him may be greater.
The difference between the two stages is also in speed and quality.
Speed means staking and quality means building above ground.
If the speed is not fast enough to enclose the land, you have to go to the ground encircled by others to build a building, and you have to pay the land money to others, so that the other party can collect money without moving.
It's fast enough, it's encircled to the ground, this is the first level of happiness, you can receive money without moving, but you can't stop others from building buildings. If you don't build it well enough, someone else's building will cover your building and end up leaving you with nowhere to build.
In Yang Rui's view, it is not enough for himself and Huang Mao to build a towering building with quality and quantity.
After the internal celebration ended, Yang Rui didn't look for anyone, so he invited Tu Xian over first, considering increasing the number of people.
The work of the second phase is much larger than that of the first phase, and it is quite hard to be completed by two people.
Tu Xian works at Beijing Iron and Steel Institute, needless to say, his own level is needless to say, he often haunts Sinovel laboratories as if he is semi-part-time, and the familiarity between the two parties is enough, and he signed the contract of the laboratory in advance, so it can be said that there are no preliminary problems.
It's also very simple to find Tu Xian, Yang Rui waited for the rabbit in the laboratory, and on the third day, he saw Tu Xian come to the door with pastries.
"Your paper won Richard of the University of California, so happy, very happy!" Tu Xian used to come to the laboratory often, but in the past month, because of scientific research competitions, he has rarely come, but this time he came to the door, but he carried a bag of pastries and put it on the table in the courtyard.
Wei Zhenxue didn't care whether he was looking for himself or not, he smiled when he mentioned the pastry: "I'm here, what are you mentioning?" ”
After saying that, without being greeted, he opened the pastry and distributed it to everyone, and by the way, he stuffed a large one into his mouth.
"Didn't we just have lunch? You at least killed a pot of mushu meat. Yang Rui was embarrassed to look at Wei Zhenxue and gobble it up.
Wei Zhenxue poured a sip of water, swallowed the pastry, and asked, "Our institute has started food rationing?"
In an instant, Wei Zhenxue had another seizure, revealing an expression of a resentful woman in the deep palace, twisting his eyebrows and saying, "Director Yang, your laboratory has produced results, do you think I have eaten too much?"
"I'm thinking about your body. Yang Rui said messily: "Don't be wandering, don't you still have experiments to do?
"Minor repairs, it will be done in a few days. Wei Zhenxue squeezed his eyebrows proudly. Minor repair means that the paper has basically passed, as long as it is revised according to the requirements of the reviewer, it can generally be published smoothly, even if Yang Rui uses tons of real materials to pile up the paper, it may still encounter the refusal of the reviewer or even ask for major repair. Wei Zhenxue's dissertation was completed independently, and as a researcher who had just begun to publish papers abroad, it was already worth showing off to get Xiaoxiu's evaluation.
Tu Xian also congratulated him.
Wei Zhenxue said politely: "No need to congratulate, after the experiment on my side is completed, I will join the research group of potassium channels, and JMC will sign the name of the first author, and it is not too late to congratulate you." ”
"You're the third author at best. ”
"The third author is enough for me to enter the graduate school. ”
"Which institute do you want to enter?" Yang Rui was surprised.
Wei Zhenxue pursed his lips and said, "I'm not going to enter the research institute, I just want them to come to me, I refuse again, comfort." ”
"You have a talent for making the conversation go on, let's go inside and talk. Yang Rui gave up.
Tu Xian followed with a smile and said, "Lao Wei's experimental level is still good. ”
Yang Rui said: "He can be the main assistant, but he is not familiar with the biological system and cannot be the main researcher." ”
"It also makes sense that he studied chemistry, but he needs to train. ”
"Compared with Lao Wei, Mr. Tu, you are a professional counterpart, are you interested in coming to our laboratory for a long time? Yang Rui paused for a moment and said, "You have signed all the contracts related to the laboratory, but it will be a little longer later." ”
"For how long?"
"All the time except for classes. Yang Rui spread his hand.
Tu Xian smiled: "That means I can't take care of the school's laboratory?"
"No, you can stay in the faculty and keep going to class, but other than that, you have to spend the rest of your time in the lab, working more than eight hours a day, and when you're busy, you know, 12 hours maybe more, and there's no overtime pay. "Researchers are long-term overtime jobs, and like management positions such as CEOs, they don't calculate income according to time, which is also a characteristic of intellectual positions.
Tu Xian also smiled solemnly, and said: "I haven't seen overtime pay, yes, I'll go back and discuss with the subject, my subject is also engaged in research, we are working together on a project in the school laboratory, I left here, and her responsibility will be heavy." ”
"If you can't do it, please ask your sister-in-law to come over, the conditions and treatment of our laboratory are not worse than those of the school. Yang Rui did not ask them to resign, but only came to the Huarui laboratory to work part-time. At present, there are no relevant regulations in China, and there are not a few employees who do so.
At the same time, Yang Rui found another page of the "Laboratory Code of Conduct" and handed it to Tu Xian, saying: "This is our basic requirement, the contract requirements are stricter and more refined, you see if my sister-in-law can accept it." ”
"I've been prepared, I've thrown myself into the net. Tu Xian smiled happily, and then looked down.
The code of conduct is written by Yang Rui himself, there are safety norms, daily ethical norms, and the most important scientific research norms: the research results in the laboratory are owned by Sinovel Laboratory, and all experimental record books, synthetic compounds, reagents, consumables, cells, etc. cannot be taken away when leaving the company, but they have the right to authorship the published articles and applied patents, and they are ranked according to the amount of contributions......
Tu Xian swept it and didn't say anything.
This is just a clear indication of the current unspoken rules. As far as the situation of domestic laboratories is concerned, researchers have no research results for scientific research, let alone patents to apply for, and the results either belong to the state or the collective, in short, there is no individual share.
Even in published articles and patents, researchers do not necessarily have the right of authorship, the larger the project, the more so, many times, the leader who does nothing to sign the signature, and sometimes, the leader meets to decide the order of signature. Chinese researchers are desperately pursuing executive power, and in many cases, out of self-preservation.
Tu Xian is a young man in Beijing Iron and Steel Institute, and in terms of rank, the lecturer is a little better than the teaching assistant, but he still exudes the atmosphere of "Xiao Tu".
Compared with comprehensive universities such as Peking University and Tsinghua University, Beijing Iron and Steel Institute in 1984 was still an engineering-oriented school, and the initial biology major received limited attention, and the laboratory conditions were not very good
Tu Xian thought about it on the road, but he was quite moved by Yang Rui's proposal.
When he got home and had dinner, Tu Xian took the initiative to apply for washing the dishes, and took out the new issue of "JMC" with some skill, dedicated it to the object, and said, "Xiaoyun, take a look at my newly borrowed periodical." ”
After brushing the bowl, Tu Xian pointed to the paper in Sinovel Lab and said, "Look at this." ”
Wang Xiaoyun quietly looked at it again.
Tu Xian waited for her to finish reading, sat down next to her, and said with a smile: "What do you think, it's good." ”
"Very good. ”
"This Sinovel lab has invited me to go to their lab, I don't have to resign, I just work a little longer every day, if you want, you can also go and have a look. ”
"And what about the projects we're working on?"
"We've got it done. The conditions of Sinovel Lab are excellent, you will know when you go to see it......" Tu Xian said, and his willingness increased.
Wang Xiaoyun listened indispensably, and only agreed to go to Sinovel Lab to have a look.
